Beverley Asforis , BACP

Beverley Asforis is a UK-based integrative counsellor with 4 years of experience supporting people through a wide range of emotional, relational, and identity-related challenges. She focuses primarily on individual counselling, guiding clients as they explore inner experience, manage stress and anxiety, strengthen self-worth, navigate life transitions, process grief and loss, and develop healthier relationships with themselves and others.

Alongside one-to-one work, she provides couples counselling and psychosexual therapy, helping partners improve communication, rebuild trust and intimacy, and address differences in desire or arousal. Her practice is inclusive of LGBT identities and attends to concerns such as social anxiety, isolation and loneliness, guilt and shame, forgiveness, and questions about life purpose and self-love.

Her manner is warm, non-judgmental, and collaborative. She meets each person and couple with compassion, curiosity, and cultural awareness, creating a reflective space to better understand what lies beneath presenting difficulties and to support meaningful change. She holds the BACP credential - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - indicating professional affiliation with the national counselling body. Taking the first step can feel daunting; Beverley aims to walk alongside clients so they feel seen, heard, and supported throughout their therapeutic journey.

Integrative approaches and online therapy

Beverley combines integrative counselling with evidence-based therapeutic techniques to tailor support to each person's needs. Integrative counselling blends methods from different therapeutic models to address emotional concerns such as stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, and life transitions, helping people develop practical coping strategies and greater self-understanding. She also offers relationship-focused work that concentrates on communication, rebuilding trust, and addressing intimacy or desire-related issues for couples. In grief-focused work she helps clients process loss and the complex emotions that follow.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process. Beverley works collaboratively with clients to identify which techniques best match their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, adjusting the approach as progress unfolds so the work remains relevant and effective.

Online therapy via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging makes it easier to access care from different locations and to fit sessions into busy schedules. These options provide flexibility and continuity, allowing licensed professionals to offer consistent therapeutic support while reducing travel and accommodating varying comfort levels with communication styles.
